This project investigates the formation of planetesimals, the building blocks of planets, by simulating the dynamics of dust grains and their interactions in protoplanetary disks. It aims to understand how turbulence and grain size distribution influence the gravitational collapse of these materials.
The Minor Bodies of the Solar System, Asteroids, Trojans, Comets and Kuiper Belt Objects are left over planetary building bricks called planetesimals once abundant in the solar nebula.
Via collisions and accretion of large grains, aka Pebbles, they grew into planets.
The efficiency of Planetesimals formation via a gravitational collapse of Pebble clouds and the characteristics of the forming planetesimals are determined by the size distribution and local concentration of the largest grains, both…
